Chapter-Leaving

Aoshi and Misao were staring in each others eyes. On Misao's left hand was a beautiful heart shaped diamond ring. It sparkled in the light that was shining through the window. Misao looked at Aoshi and Aoshi looked at Misao. Aoshi leaned over to kiss Misao but was interrupted with a sound of a thump. They quickly shot up their heads and hastily ran to the living room.

Kaoru and Kenji were off in the corner horrified. Kenshin was blocking an attack from a masked man and Marry Anne was in the other man's arm with a knife against her throat!!!

"Marry Anne!" Aoshi yelled.

"Aoshi..." Marry Anne said before passing out.

Then out of no where a man jumped out and tried to slice Aoshi's head off but luckily Aoshi dodged it and grabbed his swords, which happened to be right under the couch and hit the man. Misao was in total shock her mouth just dropped wide open. Aoshi stood with the swords in both of his hands turned around to take a short look at Misao.

'What the hell is she doing? She should be on guard or something why is she acting like this?' Aoshi thought.

The man who was fighting Kenshin is now knocked out and the man with Marry Anne was backing away. The man who jumped at Aoshi seemed to be no where in sight.

'Where is that guy who almost sliced Aoshi?' Kenshin thought eyeing the man who was holding Marry Ann. The he turned his attention to Kaoru and Kenji for a quick moment. He saw Kaoru holding Kenji but was keeping her guard up just in case something went wrong.

All of a sudden the man who almost hurt Aoshi was now right behind Misao!

"Misao look behind you!" Kenshin yelled but she was too late the man is now holding her hands down and a knife right at her throat! Aoshi did turn as soon as Kenshin yelled but stopped in his tracks when he saw the man holding Misao.

"Let her go!" Aoshi said raising his voice in anger.

"Are you mad because you didn't get to her on time?" The man said mocking him.

"Shut up! Let her go!"

"Watch it Shinomori, don't forget who gots your wife."

Aoshi got furious and jumped at him. The man tossed Misao in the corner and knocked her out. Kaoru and Kenji tried to help her wake up but no luck. Aoshi took his sword and fought with all his might all his anger all in one swing. The next thing you know the man was on the ground…dead…

'Since when did Aoshi kill people? He would have knocked him out or something but not kill like that' Kenshin thought looking down. The man who got Marry Anne got scared and ran away. (a/n-lol yea he ran away after Aoshi killed the guy. He thought he was next lol but really Kenshin would have knocked him out 0-wells.)

The front door was open, a dead body on the floor and two people passed out all because of Aoshi's cousin but it wasn't all her fault. Aoshi did get involved but he had to protect his family and because of that he almost lost his wife and his baby killed. Aoshi couldn't think about this anymore he need to be alone but at the same time be there for his wife and his cousin so he couldn't be alone. He glanced over to his wife and walked over to her. He picked her up and stared at her for a little and then started to walk to his room. He set her down gently and stared outside the window.

In the living room Kaoru and Kenji gazed at the body having no idea what to do with it. Blood was all over the floor and by now the body was starting to smell. Kenshin took Marry Anne to her room and then started helping Kaoru and Kenji do something to the body.

"Just dump him somewhere." Kenji said holding his nose.

"Where? People are going to notice and ask us a lot of questions." Kaoru said.

"I'll just call Saitou he is a cop." Kenshin said.

"Well call him and Megumi just in case Marry Anne or Misao need medical attention."

"Okay honey." Kenshin said and left to call Megumi and Saitou.

Aoshi was still staring out the window still thinking if he should leave. His head was saying yes, yes, yes but his heart was saying no, no, no…he can't decide like this so he walked over to his desk and started to write a note. He wrote down what he wanted to say to Misao before he left. He was writing his heart out and when he was finished he knew he had to leave but he knew he will come back and forever live with Misao. He folded the paper and put it under his clock he took a last look at Misao and left with a bag in his hand and a sword in the other.

"Bye Misao, my darling Misao, see you soon…" Aoshi stepped out the door and turned around to take a last look at her before he left.

Aoshi went to the guest room and carried Marry Anne out.

"Where are you taking her?" Kaoru asked.

"We're leaving." Aoshi simply replied.

"You are leaving now? I thought you would leave in like 2 days or something."

"No, I have to leave now. I mean we have to leave now don't worry about us. I'll take care of Marry Anne and myself. After today I want to get this over with before it gets any worse. I want Himura to call Sanosuke, he can help him protect Misao, Kenji and you."

"Sure I'll tell him later, so you are going to leave just like that, you are not going to leave after Misao wakes up?"

"No, she will understand why." After he said that he just walked out the door just like that not even a backwards glance or anything.

Outside there was a taxi. He put his things in the trunk and carefully set Marry Anne in the back seat and he went in letting Marry Anne lean on him.

"Where to?" The cab driver asked

"Airport." he replied and the driver drove.

Aoshi just stared straight ahead not looking back but he was thinking and all he could think about was Misao.

'Was this a mistake…?'
